Verse 1
Gm
Choices cloud my head again
F
wrapped up in myself instead
    Em7
and if I fall this time
               Gm
will it be the last time
         D
for this crime


Verse 2
Gm
Anger has more of my soul
       F
than I ever wished it would hold
    Em7
and as I let it go
                 Gm
and watch how it grows
         D
it won't fold


Bridge: No chord (I think)  *= Pick real fast

Verse 3
Gm
Flowers have grown round my eyes and ears
    F
the soil it soaks all my tears
        Em7
How I'm tired of standing here
                     Gm                  D
and I'm sick of that heat that's so near


Verse 4
Gm
And if we're all right
       F
and if we can't be wong
        Em7
then we needn't fear


We're almost there
           Gm                   D
Like I'm depressed and I hold a gun


Bridge


Chorus
Gm
It's all the same
     Eb
just falling rain
        Cm             f
all the more reason to stay
Gm
What is the scene?
     Eb
It's brown and green
    Cm                        F
the weeds that grow around my feet
